Vietnamese Lemongrass Chicken

[@anjdc1438]

i made this yesterday for my husband and it was good! just a little tip for others who are planning to cook this - be easy with the fish sauce. I only used 1 tbsp but it was a little salty for my taste so I added a little honey to counteract the saltiness. also if you're using lemongrass that has been sitting in the fridge for a little while, cook them first with the garlic before you add the onions because if you dont, your onions will be very wilted while your lemongrass is still crunchy (but if you prefer that texture its fine). all in all it was a very good recipe, ill definitely cooking this again!

[@heatherhamilton8610]

The saltiness of the fish sauce depends on the brand used.

[@hdespina5471]

I'm planning to cook this recipe, as what she measured. Thank you because you informed us that we need to reduce the amount of fish sauce.😃

[@paulinecheong6646]

Thank you for the useful tip. I dont hv fish sauce. So I will use light soy sauce instead

[@fairuzabdulwahab8016]

Tq for the tip sis

[@lamalamalex]

Oh yes! Fish sauce is very powerful! A little really goes a lot! 😊

[@Shikapham]

I'm Vietnamese and I failed to cook this dish couple times before. Then I found your recipe and decided to give it a try. The result was amazing. The dish was flavourful and tasty. My younger brother even asked me how to cook this dish and I showed him your recipe. You are amazing ❤

[@gustavoescobedo3939]

Shikapham, Is it really that good? Now i have to try to make some! I'm actually mexican but i love asian food Pho and General Tso' Chicken are som of my favorite dishes! Well that i have learned how to cook so far. Now i have to try this one!

[@lindsayjagneaux4402]

This is my favorite lemongrass recipe. I started making it this way, for my bahn mi, as well. It has so much more flavor than the grilled recipes. Also, I love the bits of shallot, chilies, and lemongrass that stick to the chicken. It's heavenly in a bowl or a sandwich.

[@manuelavelasquez3685]

I'm eating this right now, i can't believe how easy this dish is to make and how amazing it is, I'M IN LOVE!

[@marcjalbert4139]

I've been searching for this dish online - trying to duplicate the first time I had a chicken/lemongrass/rice dish back in 1982 at the first Vietnamese restaurant in Denver (New Saigon). This is spot on!! Eating at New Saigon inspired me to learn about Vietnamese cooking and culture and I've since been to Vietnam twice. Thank you!!!

[@doodahgurlie]

Now you just need to eat bun bo Hue (I'm assuming you've already had bowls of pho), bun rieu, bun thit nuong, bun cha, com tam, bo kho, etc., which you should be able to find in restaurants. But yeah, this lemongrass chicken is something families would eat at home vs at a restaurant. I love anything that's cooked with lemongrass like this...try finding the pork belly version (my family uses ground pork vs the chopped pork belly). If you like this, look up the caramelized riblets that we eat at home...so good! There's also a caramelized pork belly with pickled mustard greens that's delicious! So many great home dishes that you can't really find on youtube or online (good recipes, that is).

[@gavo1201]

I made this today and all I can say is... WOW!!! This is just one of the best things that I've ever ate IN MY WHOLE LIFE!!

I'm from Vietnam. I'm super happy because you've done a very delicious dish. This is an absolutely unique chicken dish in most Vietnamese families. And we often add some more turmeric. Hope that you'll try it and know what exactly we feel about this dish.

[@mschingacor]

Oh I'd love to try and put some turmeric

Another one of your recipe that never disappoint. Normally u take me to Korea but this meal we went to Vietnam! Glad to b a subscriber. My sincere compliments!

My sister made this a few weeks ago and I almost cried because it was so good. I thought she slaved over the stove then she told me that it was so easy to make. She was right it IS easy! Thank you Seonkyoung! This is going in the recipe box!

[@GhamPlays]

This is the best thing about being a person in this world. We share and get to enjoy each other's food, music, culture. Man, I've got to make myself some of this!

[@Ashtoriassecret1]

I'm so glad you said that about fried tofu. I finally found lemongrass at my supermarket and got some ... and had no idea what to use it with. I'm trying not to eat meat ... so tofu would be awesome!! This looks amazing! Thanks Seonkyoung!!

Hello there! Watched this video over 10 times, went out and purchased ingredients and executed.... Omg it is so tasty!!!!! Ok gotta go make a second batch. Wanted to drop by to say thank you and I love your personality.

[@BIL-T]

I love how at the end of your cooking videos, you do a bit of a Mukbang eating all if the food you cooked. So real and relatable

[@lovealeesongchannel]

Omg ! I made this tonight and my husband looooooved it! I didn't even taste it till we sat down together and ate together! Thank you sooooo much! Going to make this again!

[@dandydayfarms1269]

I have never cooked a Vietnamese dish before but I decided to try this recipe and it turned out so delicious. I'm not used to the smell of fish sauce so I had to get past the unfamiliar smells but once I did I was so thankful. Thanks for sharing and helping us cook Vietnamese dishes!

[@miemie7683]

I just finished making and eating this delicious meal. I took one of the viewer's advice to infuse the oil with the lemongrass, garlic, and Thai chili before adding the chicken. I added very little oil to the pan because I saw Seonkyoung poured out so much after frying her chicken. Since my pan had very little oil and the chicken did not generate much oil; the lemongrass, garlic, and Thai chili got stuck to the bottom of the pan. I used about 1/4 cup coconut water (more flavor) instead of tap water to scrape the good stuff, added the onion, and finally the sauce into the pan. Oh my, the chicken was so good with the steamy white rice. I had thought about plating the chicken then add the rice into the pan, but I was so hungry, maybe next time. I will cook this again tonight with ginger instead, because I ran out of lemongrass. Thank you for a great meal Seonkyoung😋

[@Moonmoon72862x]

This is the best lemon grass chicken recipe I tried so far. Very smart with the timing on when to add the sauce. It doesn’t dry out at the end by the time the chickens are cooked.

[@123igox]

I made this Lemongrass Chicken yesterday. It came out delicious! Thank you so much for your recipes. You're the best!

[@Leftside08]

I had this at a food truck down in Charleston for lunch every day for a month while I was doing a research project. It was always just called chicken thigh. And I have been looking for the recipe forever! Thank you!

[@juniperk912]

Omg this was UH-MAZING! This is perfect for a quick weekday dinner when you don't have time for lengthy preparation. The flavors were on point! Your recipes are so tasty. Please make more like this. Love!

[@andrewjpalla]

Super yummy dish. Lemongrass has such a subtle, yet complex taste/aroma. Thank you!

[@ThatJapaneseManYuta]

Just made this and it was delicious.

[@okayq]

Does the fish sauce and lemon grass really infiltrate into the meat?

[@weixinong3877]

​@@okayq Doesn't have to, for a saucy dish you can just eat it together

[@kphilipps55]

I just made it and we just ate it and wow! It was soooo good!! Made exactly by recipe but also added the carrots for crunch (they were so good!!) and my husband is so difficult when it comes to food, I was very happy that he liked it a lot! Definitely will cook again)) thank you))

[@SeonkyoungLongest]

So great!! 🥳🥳🥳

[@susiecakes-v5v]

Tried it and it was amazing. Perfect blend of savory, sweet, and spicy. Plus it was so easy to make! Thank you so much!!

[@AlexLopez-ed8uy]

OMG!!!! that looks crazy good. You always make me hungry when i watch your videos Lol, this is my kind of meal. I wanted to marinate the chicken in the lemongrass ,garlic & chili, Can i marinate in the fish sauce mix you made also? & how long can i marinate for. I would appreciate it. & thank you for sharing. :)

[@SeonkyoungLongest]

I don't recommend to marinate this recipe because it will be challenge to cook chicken nice golden brown crispy with that much sugar and other small bits of veg- it will just burn before chicken cook through. The flavor coming through perfectly without marinate, so try as the recipe. :-)

[@AlexLopez-ed8uy]

Ok gotcha, thanks & have a good day. 😊

[@josephwright5140]

Listen, this is the closest thing to the restaurant version I've ever had. I love that you brown the chicken and get the fluid out FIRST. It's usually the opposite in Vietnamese cooking but the drier pan I think makes the vegetables get aromatic quicker without getting too oily and wilted, and also makes for a much leaner meal in general.

[@blossomfrancon9816]

Joseph Wright The Vietnamese are very healthy cookers and eaters, they won’t use unnecessary fat amount in their cooking. Vietnamese cuisine is very much becoming mainstream.

[@syee325]

[@quynhhuynh3776]

I do love your videos. I watch each one many times. I made some Korean food, Chinese food which you share w us.Your recipes are always awesome. I always make the lemongrass chicken like that the chicken is marinated with all the ingredients above and some curry powder ( the curry powder will make the chicken has a nice color and aromatic smell) in 30 mins. after that I add 2 tsp cooking oil in the pan over high hit w some garlic,curry powder,shallot, lemongrass around 30 seconds, then add the chicken which I marinated. But I still love the way that you made. Thanks for sharing the Vietnamese food n always keep watching your videos ;)

[@brandon3872]

For anyone who's making this, don't throw away the excess oil from the chicken! It's perfect for stir frying. I especially reccomend using it in fried rice! :)

[@nataliawchima9891]

This was really good! I had never tried it. I just made some small changes in the process: I took the chicken out of the wok once it got that lovely brown color so it wouldnt dry out. Then, I added the onion and lemongrass first, a few minutes later the garlic, and then the chicken and the sauce just to finish up cooking for a couple of minutes. Chicken was juicy, tender and had all the flavours! Thank you again

[@anpham6151]

Amazing and weldone sis!! This called “ga kho xa ot” or braised chicken lemon grass, well known home dish in Vietnam in daily meals. Here is tips how to make it very authentic way: 1. Marinate chicken with five-spice powder, sugar, lemongrass, chili and a little fish sauce. 2. Leaving the seasonings infuse for 30 minutes. 3. Fire on high heat, less oil (because the chicken is also fat), fry the lemongrass, chili onion 1 minute. 4. Place all the marrinated chicken meet inside, keep high heat15 minutes. 5. Stir the pan, lower fire, put a tea cup of cold water (or coconut juices). Leave it in 15 minutes until the sauces become condensed. 6. Adding little pepper , NO HERB plz!! Because herb + heat change the original smell. Thanks alls!!

[@doodahgurlie]

Never seen five spice used in lemongrass chicken, so I would say that's not traditional...but I'm sure it's good.
